No they aren't lol. I don't think they even fall in the top ten if we're talking about black markets worldwide. You don't even need to know anything about black markets to know that the prison population is a microscopic fraction of global pop. I never claimed Monero is money. I dont think either Bitcoin or Monero qualify as money yet so I don't see how they differ in that. None are the most saleable good. They're just mediums of exchange and speculative assets at the moment.

I don't doubt you have. The hurdle is needing to mix coins to begin with (expensive in time, fees, and tedium all for shittier privacy VS Monero) or running your own always online LN node to gain full privacy. Even among hardcore Bitcoiners coinjoining and running your own LN node is rare. If Bitcoin maxis barely do it, why would anyone else? DNM merchants/customers just want their transactions privacy to be built-in no fuss and work which is why Monero is taking over DNMs. No DNMs accept LN.
